Alright guys, I recently acquired a leopard gecko. it was actually a rescue that was given to me from another member of this site. he rescued it the same day i picked it up from his house. SO he didn't have time to treat it..

But anyways...

He had some retained shed on his toes, so we decided to make a humid hide and see if it came off. Well it didn't work, last night he shed and he still retained some shed on his toes. I took him out and took a closer look and realized it was shed from like the past 4 or 5 sheds and it needed to come off.

I decided to take matters into my own hand and help him out. I wet my fingers and helped him get it off, once i took it off i realized his toes had not been growing, Everything under the shed had been not growing, it almost looked like the circulation had been cut off on his poor little toes.


Now my question is will his lil toes start to grow now that he doesnt have the shed hindering his lil toesies? Has anyone ever had problems with the toes not coming off?


I feel bad for this little guy. Im glad he got rescued when he did...
